The Lincoln Hotel, a refurbished 1960s property next to Lincoln Cathedral, is a great base from which to explore the medieval city. The hotel is close to the Westgate Water Tower, The County Assembly Rooms, the Priory Arch and the Medieval Bishops' Palace.
Lincoln Castle, a Norman castle constructed in the late 11th century by William the Conqueror, is five minutes' walk away. The Collection Usher Gallery, which houses an eclectic range of works by famous artists, decorative arts and timepieces, and the Museum of Lincolnshire Life, which celebrates the culture of Lincolnshire and its people from 1750 to the present day, are both within 15 minutes' walk away.
Doddington Hall and Gardens is 20 minutes' drive away and the Lincolnshire Wolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty is 40 minutes away.
The hotel's AA-Rosette Green Room restaurant combines traditional flavours with a contemporary twist and sources local ingredients. "The Green Room has a striking, design-led interior, with candles and fresh flowers adding a homely touch", says The AA, which also praises the hotel's "superb uninterrupted views of Lincoln Cathedral".
You can relax in the lounge with a coffee and a cake or have a pre-dinner aperitif in Bar 67, which has retro déco -- its name is an ode to the spirit of 1967, when Jimi Hendrix played a sold-out gig at Lincoln's ABC Cinema.
Rooms are decorated with modern designs and all come with Wi-Fi and tea- and coffee-making facilities. Superior Rooms have views of Lincoln Cathedral or garden views, and some have a private patio.

I understand that reception had recently been resited which would account for the very confusing signs to the reception. This needs to be sorted quickly,! The only other negative comment I would make is that there was no decent drawer space in the bedroom. The drawers were so shallow it was difficult to fit any items in!

I thought that the decor of the corridor leading to our room was very gloomy and there was an unpleasant smell ,not very welcoming ,but the room itself was lovely. We had a lovely meal in the restaurant the staff were really pleasant. We went to our room to enjoy the rest of the evening and got comfy hoping to watch a film and relax unfortunately that wasn’t possible, we could here loud music and I thought it was coming from the bar and would stop soon but it just kept getting louder we don’t like complaining but at 12.40 my husband rang reception to see how much longer it was going on for as we had had enough of the constant noise, he was told it was the staff Christmas party and they would turn the music off soon which they did after a couple more songs . I booked a superior room as a surprise for my husband on our 39 th wedding anniversary, we had some very happy times at the ‘Eastgate ‘ as it was then so this experience was very disappointing. When we checked out we weren’t asked if we had enjoyed our stay or I would probably have said something but as you’re asking I thought I would let you know about our experience and I suggest you tell the hotel to notify guests if there is a function on during there stay and maybe suggest that they are further away from the function room if they don’t want to be disturbed, I certainly wouldn’t have booked that room had I known.

The car park is at the rear of the hotel and a pathway leads to reception at ground level. The friendly staff made you welcome particularly Louis, Marie and Nicola at breakfast and Nigella, Gemma and Lacey at dinner. The hotel could do with a touch of paint in places to cover doors and shelves. The bath needed recoating.

We stayed in room 232. The windows were not double glazed so we could hear the cathedral bells every 15 minutes until 11:30pm and they started again at 7am on the Sunday morning. You could not hear the bells from the bar, so it must have been the lack of double glazing in our room which was the issue. Also the mattress was way too soft and the pillows too hard. There were hairs left on the toilet seat and the bath plug was full of white hairs.

We booked this as a deal through travelzoo and as such it included dinner in their fine dining room (The Green Room)and, as such we have given it 5* as value for money but cannot comment on the normal price. It was a standard room with a view of the rooms in the next wing. The corridors to the standard rooms are looking rather careworn but the rest of the building is fine. We enjoyed our stay and the fine dining resturant food and staff were excellent. There is also a more standard style dining area but we only experienced this for breakfast.

Check in was smooth and the receptionist pleasant but when we asked to book into the restaurant, we were told that it was full. We then said OK we will eat in bar 65 only to be told that it was closed but there was a limited menu available in the reception area/bar as it was raining we did not want to go into Lincoln to find somewhere else to eat. We went up to our room which was normal size for city centre hotel and clean and comfortable with a good shower and controllable heating. We later went down to eat, there was 4/5 mains and I chose the pie of the day only to find there was not one, so we both chose the steak and king prawns but when it arrived the prawns were substituted with scallops which fortunately we both like but we should have been told. We ordered 2 sides and had to ask for them, they arrived about 5 mins later but did not have the dip so we had to ask again by this time we were half way through our meal. On the positive side the steaks and scallops were very good quality and cooked perfectly so we decided to book the restaurant for the following night. The service was incredibly slow, the couple next to us had been seated for 40 mins and had not been served and we did not fare any better so we asked for the advertised cocktail menu only to be told that they did not serve cocktails now. When our food arrived mine was lukewarm but by then I was hungry so just ate what I could unfortunately it did not live up to the steak, I feel that the chef is over-reaching himself as the various components of the dish did not complement each other. We did speak to the duty manager who said she would bring it up at the team meeting that day and promised to adjust the bill and when we checked out she had deducted a couple of our drinks, however the main reason we spoke to her was to draw her attention to the niggley little things which were letting the hotel down. Had we not eaten there, it would have been an excellent value for money stay.

Breakfast service is not as good as we would have expected. We were not shown to a table, not served tea or coffee nor asked if we would like to order anything from the menu. Also the buffet breakfast was not maintained with fresh food adequately and the choice of cereals, fruit and yoghurt is very limited. Although this is just our personal comment, I think most guests would welcome this improvement as other members of our party and comments from other guests did suggest they had the same opinions.

Whilst eating breakfast on Sunday morning, I was appalled at the number of guests who had attended a wedding the day before, standing just outside the reception doors at the top of the steps, smoking and then throwing their cigarette butts both onto the steps and onto the gardens either side. The groundsman, who had already cleared the debris from the previous day, including cigarette butts from the main seating area, was on his hands and knees picking them, and other litter, up, but still they continued to throw them down. This is no reflection on the hotel, but perhaps a notice could be displayed asking smokers not to smoke by the door, so that non smokers don't have to walk through the smoke, and to use an ash tray?

The hotel is in a superb location and although externally it isn't the most attractive building, it is a really great place to stay. Be careful about parking as there are limited places and you may not be able to get a space as they can't be reserved - there are public car parks within walking distance. The hotel overlooked our request for a twin room so when we arrived they upgraded us to a twin garden room which was excellent - doors out onto a delightful walled garden, complete with the room's outdoor table and chairs. The evening meal was exceptional - really high standard of food and thoroughly enjoyed - outstanding value for money!

Everything was fine except that we had been told, at reception on the Friday evening, that we could leave the car in the car park until 5PM on the Saturday, when we had planned to leave. However on the Saturday AM we were told, by a different receptionist, that we had to move our car out of the car park by mid-day, because of a large wedding. We were not that pleased. It would have been better to have told us on the Friday and we could have looked for cheaper parking elsewhere. Instead we were stuck with expensive car parking for the 5 hours that we actually wanted to spend in Lincoln. The car hotel park had plenty of space in it at 12 o'clock, on the Saturday!....

Hotel is essentially a 1960s build only cosmetically updated. Our top floor 'superior' room was comfortable, had small balcony and was well soundproofed. Bed a bit tired as were the help yourself breakfasts. Also we coincided with serious (70 +) wrinklies on a coach trip.

We weren’t too happy at the booking in experience at the hotel. We just got the impression that the hotel receptionist wasn’t as helpful and welcoming as we thought because we booked through ‘Travelzoo’ and not direct with them or some other travel company.

The room was very dated, although clean but we had a problem with the shower as it would not turn off! Having contacted reception it took over 20mins for someone to come by which time the room was like a sauna. Eventually someone did come from maintenance and switched it off. However when we returned to the room the problem of the shower unit had not been mended. We decided to for go our second night and go home. I was disappointed that we were not offered a new room and showed my concern that the shower was dangerous if someone turned it one whilst standing in the bath - the receptionist showed no concern or interest and it was an effort fir her to say ‘sorry’

The staff are friendly and the hotel is clean and well situated. The room and bathroom decor was a bit tired and shower head could not be angled and it soaked the bathroom floor during my shower. Evening meal was excellent food but let down with the length of time it took to serve it . We waited over 1 hour to be served our starter then a further 40 mins for our main course, this happened over two nights and we watched others in the room waiting the same length of time. Also my husbands starter was missing vital ingredients. We had two lunches in the bar area and these were served quite quickly and were tasty.

The standard of our room. The shower would not work properly and took 40 minutes to fix and then it did not work properly. We were late going out but the Duty Manager said he would look for another room but thought he was full. He did not even have the courtesy to ring and say there were no other rooms available. We had a room above the wedding disco and the music was very loud but did end at 12.10. It would have made sense to have put wedding guests near the disco then it would not have disrupted their stay.
People were running around the corridors and banging doors till around 1.30 in the morning. They then started banging on the doors at around 7 in the morning and this was still going till 8 when we eventually got up. They were also shouting loudly at each other.
The pillows were rock hard so we did not get much sleep either.
As for breakfast the tables were no cleaned properly and crumbs and stains were left on them and this was at 9 in the morning. It took 30 minutes to replenish the orange juice. The cooked breakfast was mixed with the sausage and hash browns excellent. However the bacon was greasy, the fried eggs rock hard, the beans very runny with a strange amount of sauce and the tomatoes were hardly cooked. The croissants also tasted not fully cooked and had a very strange aftertaste and the coffee was undrinkable.
Also the hotel corridors had a very strange smell which was a little like water chestnuts in Chinese dishes and not pleasant at all.

Room; in need of refurbishment, not overly clean, bath was dirty no air-conditioning and the main window was sealed with paint and unable to be opened except with a crowbar !! the bathroom window opened about 3 inches. Overall a very unpleasant dingy room. We asked to be moved after complaining about it's condition. The reception area is in need of refurbishing, chairs were dingy and dirty, probably from overuse, not pleasant at all. Breakfast was reasonable but staffing was limited which affected attention to detail i.e. cutlery's limited and items on buffet not replenished unless customers asked.

Location is superb as was the staff. Yes the hotel is a bit tired but the deal on offer far outweighed this. The afternoon tea and evening meal was perfect but the buffet breakfast had been under the heating lights to long but I ask for a fresh batch which they did without a problem. Finally we had a great cathedral view room the bed was comfy and we didn’t hear a thing from other guests. Big thumbs up !

Restaurant staff told us we could spend £25 on a range of courses anything over £25 to be paid for. We explained we were expecting a three course dinner all included but she insisted she was right. So we only ate 2 courses which came above £25. It took the shine off it a bit . On checking out we were only charged for drinks and not charged the "extra" on food so reception staff knew the correct details of the deal.

Lack of mature staff. All staff appeared to be under 30years, trying to get them to understand that a blocked over flowing shower tray was dangerous and that I did not require a bundle of towels to mop up to stop me from slipping. Loved this hotel last time but was not up to standard this time.

The building is very dated. While most of the staff are very pleasant, they are overstretched. We waited 20 minutes for a coffee when we arrived and breakfast on the first morning was not very organised due to a lack of staff. I had to get up and find someone to ask for a pot of tea. Our table was laid but cups and milk were missing. Food was not replenished unless someone asked for something. It was less busy the following day and therefore service was better.

A tale of two dinners. 7.00pm evening meal we ordered one salmon and one steak meal. They arrived and the salmon meal was cold, it was returned and I carried on eating mine. The second salmon was also cold so that was returned, I carried on with my meal. Third time lucky by which time I had finished. So ended eating my meal on my own and then watched as my wife had hers. Not exactly a nice evening meal out.

Unfortunately the carpets smelt terribly in the corridors and were very grubby, not in the rooms, but still very off putting. The Cathedral view superior room we had was very tired, lots of chipped paintwork and the toilet didn't flush well. Breakfast mediocre, understaffed and average quality, ordered eggs benedict which was forgotten first off, then when finally did come was on burnt muffins with no ham! I wouldn't want to pay £11 for it.

When s arrived our room was cold, radiator not sorking. Rang reception & they brought up a small heater. Took ages to get warm. Went for evening dinner at 8pm, could not get an earlier time. Both of us have digestion problems & need to eat earlier. Dining room was very chilly. Waited 35 minutes for starter, then another 20 minutes for many course & 15 minutes for dessert. The service was appalling. All the time we were getting colder as there was a cold draught coming in the door. Also my bank could of duck was very under cooked & inedible. I was offered something else but would take time to cook & I was not prepared to wait any longer. We complained to the manager but only got a very muted apology. Also complained about non-working radiator. This was put right by plumber lunchtime next day. This break was for a Wedding Anniversary celebrations & first day was ruined.

The hotel itself is well sited with excellent views of the cathedral from the front rooms which are spacious , well appointed and comfortable . Public rooms are also spacious and comfortable .
Breakfast room and breakfast OK . On the two evenings we spent in the dining room the service was so slow that we walked out after the second course (over two hours) on the first but managed to stay the course on the second . I have never spent so much time in a dining room ,
Fair to say the food was good when it finally arrived but the time of delivery was totally unacceptable .

The diy attitude of many of the staff. The general unhelpfulness of some key staff, eg at reception. The lack of experience and training of many staff in the standards to be expected; the way to talk to customers and the indifference and general absence of managerial oversight of practice in and around the hotel. The couple next to us in the dining room were kept waiting for 55 minutes before receiving their starter course despite having arrived at the time scheduled by the hotel. No sign of any concern by the two young women serving in the dining room.
